One of the things I massively miss when abroad and one of the first things I do/have when back on U.K. soil.

[Numero Veinticinco]

Good fish and chips. Fucking reet.

 

Oh, and Roaul Moat. The man, the coverage, and Gazza. All top notch. The thread was a classic.

What are her favourites?

[Remmie]

Chocolate Fudge Cake.

Cheesecake.

Honey Cake (definitely not British though).

There was a really nice Lemon one but can't remember it's name.

 

I'm not much of a cake historian so couldn't tell you which cakes were invented in Britain, I think she is saying the standard of cake wherever you might buy it, is always very high.

 

Turns out I'm a bit of a Cake 'tard though.

Just asked and she said:

 

Victoria Sponge

Tiffin (OK not a cake, maybe a biscuit?)

Carrot Cake

Salted Caramel

I live quite close to a very pretty town called Carmona. Their special local cake is..."English cake".

 

I reckon cakes is a good shout.

Fuck all wrong with Carrot Cake you cunt.

 

But agreed Remmie should leave her for the rest. And tell old bill why he left her.

Any cake that needs a vegetable in to make it better does not warrant to be entertained. Give your head a wobble and rethink your cake club membership, Janet.

On this, Stig is right. There are some amazing carrot cake recipes out there.

 

I’m thinking it’s not British in origin but has been assimilated on to the menus of all right thinking cafes

[Captain Turdseye]

This one’s not British but I’m back on the shitcake scene after Amy’s unfortunate retirement.

 

I found her inspiration. An American mom who made this ‘cow having a calf’ cake for her son, Benz. Check it out!

It’s one of the easiest recipes out there...

 

4oz soft butter

4oz caster sugar

6oz SR flour

2 large eggs

2 tablesp milk

grated rind of a lemon

 

All the ingredients go into a large bowl together.

Mix until combined and smooth

 

Bake in 2lb loaf tin

I use those parchment tin liners.

 

Bake at 160 fan, gas 4/5 for about 45 min

 

Once it’s baked prick the top of the cake all over with a fork and then brush over a thin icing made from 3 tablespoon icing sugar and 3 tablespoon lemon juice. It looks like a lot but it soon disappears into the cake.

 

Never fails

[Captain Turdseye]

I’ve just noticed that two years on, American Mom’s other son, Cruz, asked for a ‘chicken laying an egg’ cake.

 

 

I can’t help but feel there’s some questionable parenting going on. Two kids with ridiculous names produce two cake requests like this. Something isn’t right.

[Captain Turdseye]

Scratch that. They’re Canadian. It makes perfect sense.

[Oh Buoy]

Love everything about those cakes.

The Royal Family.

 

I masturbate furiously to them each and every evening. They're all so handsome and caring. They're just the sort that you could bump into in any local pub on any given night and they probably don't stink of fish.
